Partial day rehab centers treat drug abuse disorders and mental health disorders which might be co-occurring. In the partial day rehab center the person takes part in numerous rehabilitation activities during the day and then returns home later in the day, anywhere from 5 to 7 days per week. Partial day rehab centers are a perfect alternative for alcohol or drug addicted folks who may are not prepared to pay for inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment, or who might not have the ability to be away from their own families whilst in inpatient or residential treatment. During a partial day rehab center, individuals experience group, one-on-one and in many cases family counseling and therapy for drug or alcohol use issues whilst addressing whatever mental health disorder is plaguing them. It is very important to handle both issues simultaneously when there is any hope for individuals maintaining any sort of long-term abstinence or being able to regain a healthy lifestyle. This could take several months due to the fact it's a part-time treatment option, but it will likely be worth it to the rehabilitation client as well as their families in the long run whenever they can move forward with a fresh beginning.
